Do keep up, Hugh. This has been debated extensively elsewhere on this forum. The BBC is planning for the switchover early in the 2030s. There is no current agreement for the transmitters to continue broadcasting TV beyond 2034.

As also discussed, we are being pressured to make more bandwidth available for mobile signals and this may prove impossible to resist.

There is a campaign going for terrestrial broadcasting to continue well beyond 2040, but unless the government finds a way to stand up to pressure from other countries to give up their bandwidth, I can't really see this happening.

[EXTRACT]

The Director-General of the BBC, Tim Davie, has given broadband ISPs and mobile operators something extra to think about after he proposed that the corporation could plan to “switch-off” terrestrial TV and radio signals by the end of 2030. In their place, the broadcaster would focus on online content and streaming (e.g. iPlayer).
